Gondry/ Carax/ Bong's "Tokyo!" gets a gorgeous new trailer

by Chris MaGee

It looks like we're one step closer to having the Michel Gondry, Leos Carax, Bong Joon-ho omnibus film "Tokyo!" in some kind of wide(ish) North American release. A new trailer for the film which combines three surreal tales set in the Japanese capital has been cut together by the folks at Liberation Entertainment in advance of its March 6th limited theatrical release... and damned if it's not a gorgeous bit of work. Of course it helps that's it's in crystal clear Quicktime 7 and not the pixelated YouTube videos that us foreign films fans are so used to enduring.
